Things I love right now:


1.) The kids i see during substituting!!
a.) What they search for on Google Earth:  top of the list: their home, hawaii, the north pole.  Those smart few look up the Georgia Russian border and places that Ike hit.
  b.) In an ELD class a jealous jr high boy could no longer handle the girls swooning over the jonas brothers that he started calling them the CHONIES brothers.  "you can go marry Joe CHONIES and be Mrs. CHONIES!"



2.) Fringe:  Like seriously.  JJ Abrams, Joshua Jackson, and crazy theoretical science that fills that inner conspiracy nerdiness of me that has been lost since Area 54 was relocated.



3.) Tad has started doing the Jim Halpert face whenever someone says something ridiculous, or confusing and it takes all my strength to not laugh in front/ at people.



**EDIT** (insert - better jim face)


4.) Politics.  I am like glued to my seat and I watch endless amounts of Keith Olbermann and I adore Chuck Todd's nerdy numbers.

between the chonies brothers, the halbert face, and the fringe goodness i completely agree with you! and now i kinda miss subbing. the kid stories were the best. you should bring a notebook and write down the random things you hear. I did. there's good stuff out there. :) particularly the jr. highers...gold.
